SWINTON Lions will go into Sunday's home game with Blackpool feeling revitalised and at almost full strength.

A perfectly timed week off has enabled the Lions to shake off the effects of a flu bug which hit the camp prior to their previous outing against Batley.

As a result, only one player - long-term shoulder injury victim Dave Llewellyn - is unavaliable for selection on Sunday, May 15, kick-off 2.30pm.

Swinton coach Paul Kidd: "Blackpool have had their troubles this season, which led to us signing two of their better players in Ian Parry and Danny Barton.

"Both of those players should be involved on Sunday. It will be a big game for them but it will be a big game for all of our players.

"It is a local derby and Blackpool always seem to raise their game against us. They certainly did the last time we met, when we drew 14-14 in the Northern Rail Cup earlier in the season.

"But the week off that we've had has given us the chance to recharge our batteries and it should do us the world of good."

The Swinton Supporters' Trust has drawn up a 'Targert 1,000' project for Sunday's game.

Supporter's trust member Steve Wild said: "The club urgently requires more support at Park Lane.

"It's fair to say that despite the blip at Dewsbury, the team has shown great form this season and certainly deserves to be playing in front of a larger audience.

"So let's target a specific fixture and see what we can do about it. If every regular supporter brings along a friend or family member, that is either a new or previously lost supporter, then the 1,000 barrier can easily be broken on Sunday."

The club are selling lunch and crunch tickets for the Blackpool match.

The £25 tickets are inclusive of a meal, wine, a car park pass, a stand seat and a match day programme.

Meanwhile, any fans wishing to travel on a club coach to Swinton's National League Two game at Keighley on Sunday, May 22, need to book their place on the coach before the end of the Blackpool game.

Fans can book seats at Swinton's club shop or at a match day stall at Sedgley Park.

The club shop are also selling tickets for Swinton's 20-over cricket challenge at Clifton Cricket Club on Wednesday, June 29, 6.25pm start.

Tickets to see the Lions take on Clifton are priced at £2 for adults and £1 for concessions.
